  Research Interests


I am working on the modification of polymer surface by impregnating metal nanoparticles in it, investigating the interaction of polymers with metal atoms. A non-linear optical technique, Sum Frequency Generating (SFG) spectroscopy in combination with Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is being used to characterize the nanocomposite surfaces.
